Why you should support the Rangers

The Rangers have won five of their six road games in the playoffs and have scored five times in each of their last two away wins. Barclay Goodrow and Alexis Lafreniere each scored twice as the Rangers beat the Panthers in Game 3 in Florida, while Vincent Trocheck, Jacob Trouba and Ryan Lindgren each had two assists. The Rangers are a tough team to beat when they have that scoring depth.

That deep scoring also helps take the pressure off Shesterkin, who is still playing well despite allowing at least two goals in the last three games. He’s also seeing a higher shot volume than Bobrovsky, so any scoring help the offense can give him will likely be greatly appreciated. See who to support on SportsLine.

Why you should support the Panthers

The Panthers won’t want the series to return to New York for Game 7, so they will likely play their most physical game yet. Florida narrowly outscored New York in this series 183-181, so the Panthers will make sure to impose their will on home ice and close out the series there.

Despite allowing a goal late in the third period of Game 5, Bobrovsky did a good job of minimizing the damage outside of the 5-4 OT loss in Game 3. Florida’s offense did a good job of finding the back of the net, but Bobrovksy will have to make big stops on Saturday if the Panthers want to advance to the Stanley Cup Final.
